Factsheet: Progressing and Retaining Young Talent

This factsheet will enable you to support young employees to develop the skills you need and then help you keep them with your organisation.

Ensuring that you have a clear talent pipeline linked to your workforce development strategy that enables young employees to progress to more advanced roles is also vital to ensure that you get maximum return on your investment in developing home-grown talent. It will also minimise your recruitment costs and help you to retain all the bespoke skills and expertise that your young employees have developed.

This factsheet was developed as part of Business in the Community’s Future Proof campaign, backed by the City & Guilds Group to help employers break down the barriers in their recruitment processes to create quality, accessible jobs for all young people.
